Grads and Careers

The philosophy major is not a path to just one career. One does not typically major in philosophy to become a philosopher. So, what do philosophy majors do after graduation? More importantly, what do Centenary philosophy majors do after graduation? Their lives follow many different, impressive paths--ranging from medicine to law to travel photography to teaching to careers in health and fitness.

Graduates: Update us! Send Dr. Ciocchetti an email at cciocchetti@centenary.edu.

Philosophy, Minor in Political Science

“

Philosophy has truly benefited my law school career. One of the first things an attorney said he noticed about my resume was the fact that I’m a philosophy major. In law school it is important to not only understand your side of the argument, but also the argument of your opponent. I am able to critically examine how to advocate for my position, as well as breakdown my opponent’s argument, so I can effectively make arguments against it.

A background in philosophy is invaluable in negotiating the complex ethical dilemmas that healthcare providers may encounter in practice.
